Alice Perivale saved the world, now she's pleased to make a teacup garden. Seventy-three year old Mrs. Perivale is enjoying time with her grandson when her secret vial of dragon's blood begins to glow brightly, and she fears that things have gone terribly wrong in the magical land of Corevé since she left. Alice loses no time in calling her mighty dragon friend Diovalo out of foreboding, thunderous skies, to land in Hyde Park and whisk her, her six cats, her butler Henderson, and her stunned grandson away.



Armed with stab-tastic knitting needles, her fist high in the air, Alice is certain she's ready to find and rescue the fire dragons who have vanished without a trace. Her task becomes almost impossible when her company is betrayed, her family is pulled apart, and her identity is splintered, but Alice knows that hope is the brightest light in darkness.



How can she help those who need her most when every step takes her somewhere she never imagined she'd be?
